Step 2: Preparing the Headphones

You can now start to disassemble your sacrificed headphones. My headphones came apart pretty easily, so this step may take you longer than it took me.

You will need to drill 2-3 holes, the hole for boom and mic wires can be the same or separate.

You will need to find a couple of drill bits that will make holes big enough to fit the boom and cord.

With mine I decided to use the little rubber bit from the xbox headset that the cord goes through to make them look more legit, but it took me like 20mins to take it out of the xbox headset and then another 20mins to put it into my headphones, you can do it aswell if you can be bothered with the hassle.

Make sure you test fit to where you headset will be to make so it's in the right place before you drill.

Step 3: Final Touches

Insert the cord, boom and headset wires into the headphones, and now you will need to re-solder the microphone wires inside the headphones.

You can solder the headphone wires onto the speaker if you want, THE MICROPHONE WILL WORK IF THEY ARE NOT CONNECTED, and I'm not that good at soldering or electronics stuff so I didn't bother with it, and I also have it set to play voice through both headset and speakers on my xbox.

After you finish soldering you can tape/heat shrink up the wires and reassemble you headphones.

Now you should have your own custom Turtle Beach like headset.

Step 4: My Setup

My headset goes into my controller, obviously, then the headphones go into my guitar amp, but you can use a stereo amp or go straight into the headphone socket, then my amp goes into the headphone socket on my t.v.

Originally I was gonna buy a cheap pair of wireless headphones from ebay, but I couldn't be bothered, but thats something you could do if you want a semi-wireless headset.
